Hunter 27

“Pocket cruisers” are by nature, compact and simple, created and owned for the purest form of sailing enjoyment. The Hunter 27 delivers all that and a little extra for those who want the interior space to enjoy the occasional overnight escape when conditions are right. Under sail, you’ll find the 27 responds like a dinghy, but with the stability and security of a true keelboat. Quick acceleration and pinpoint turning accuracy are combined with an easy-to-tack fractional sailplan to make the 27 exciting to sail, especially in close quarters. The helm station offers several different seating options to choose from, allowing the skipper to extend their time at the wheel from a variety of comfortable positions, all accessable to the jib and mainsail controls. Reliable deck hardware from Harken & Lewmar reduce friction, improving the feel of the sheets and making sail adjustments simple and easy. Although spacious and functional, the interior accommodations are decidedly a “no-frills” proposition. Standing headroom in the salon of a 27 footer is rare but much appreciated feature that make this boat much more than a daysailor. A practical galley, dinette seating for 6, and sleeping space for 4 make it possible to spend pleasant overnights anchored in your favorite cove. The amazingly complete standard equipment list can be augmented with a variety of factory options to suit your own preferences. Whether you are looking for your first boat or your last, the Hunter 27 provides a safe and sturdy platform to relax and recharge on your local waterway.
